EXCLUSIVE: Powerful Labour unions will boycott the party’s women’s conference this year in protest at the ban on trans women.
Unison, Aslef, Usdaw and the Musicians Union will not attend Labour Women’s Conference in September over the exclusion of trans women from formal business at the event.
The unions are among Labour’s largest financial backers and say the all-women event in Liverpool breaches their policies on trans inclusion.

EXCL - Robert Kenyon's suspended X account REVEALED...
The Reform candidate posted about Asian men 'assaulting white people en masse' and 'an invasion of foreign criminals'.
Kenyon also said the far right doesn't exist and demanded King Charles open up his palaces to house asylum seekers, after the monarch called for unity during the Southport riots.
Reform has refused to investigate their candidate and said they are proud to have him representing the party.

Our team recently suffered a tragic loss. It has been a stark reminder of how important it is to check in on our friends, colleagues, & loved ones. Rob’s family have set up a fundraiser for @MovemberUK to support men’s mental health, which I’m sharing here for anyone who wishes to help.

Absolutely unbelievable news that has come out this afternoon - around 19,000 Afghan nationals who helped support British forces had their personal details revealed when a dataset was mistakenly sent in an insecure email in February 2022. Read more below.

December 1981: Thatcher is 27 points behind in polls in 3rd place, had led in just one poll in the past 2.5 yrs. Fast forward to 2025, unimaginable she'd survive as PM, or at v.least not have to junk key parts of her platform. Q is have MPs become less able to hold their nerve?

One of the pieces I’m most proud of - on a subject that’s incredibly important to raise awareness about. Give it a read if you can.

11 months ago I became Chairman of Reform. I’ve worked full time as a volunteer to take the party from 14 to 30%, quadrupled its membership and delivered historic electoral results.
I no longer believe working to get a Reform government elected is a good use of my time, and hereby resign the office.

Like many in his generation, my grandad never talked about his war.
But without their bravery, the freedom and joy of today’s celebrations may never have come to pass.
Today, we honour them.

In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on the Houthis in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. theatlantic.com/politics/arc…
